Monitoring of materials used in projects

hi,
we use projects for construction projects..
at start of projects, we have list of all materials needed for the project (from estimating department)
during the project, materials and qty have changes due to variations and wrong estimates
at the end of project, the actual materials used is different from initial estimates..
now what i need is how to best maintain/monitor/track the materials at the beginning, during and after the project in terms of variance and change in materials and quantities..
any input would be appreciated..
thanks in advance..

Hello Ramesh
I understand your response on the plan version, but rather than a plan version, have you considered a project version.
I have used this technique before when I want a snapshot of the project at the time of release so that I can compare changes to the dates at time of approval (effectively my baseline) against the current scheduled dates as the version dates would not be able to be changed or rescheduled.
I did not have material ordered from projects so I cannot say whether the material/price is also captured in the version snapshot.
You may need to develop custom reports to read the project version that is stored to compare against the current active/operating version.

Stuart

Materials in a project

Hi All,
I have a material number and I have a project definition. How can I determine whether the material is used in the project or not? Also is there any way to get all the materials used in a particular project as in transaction CN52N?
Thnx
Navin

Hi Navin,
Check in Tables PRPS. it could have the Material number assigned to a Project.

I am receiving this message right now, while conducting prototype testing.
Message no. SOLAR_SPROJECT055 - Logical component Z_CHARM_PT is not used in project CHARM_PT01
I used this logical component in a previous solman project and it worked. Now I have closed that project and am trying to create a new one using the same logical component.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

My iPad shows a message "Cannot find AirPrint printer". I used to use my iPad to print materials using HP wireless printer D110. Now it does not want to print. Is this because I am now using IOS 7? What should I do to solve the problem? Help please.

Restart your WiFi router and printer by removing power for 30 seconds.

I have a PowerBook G4 with a non-functioning monitor. It used to work with an external monitor, but I reinstalled the OS, which cleared the display preferences and now when I restart it won't detect the external monitor. How do I fix?

I have a PowerBook G4 with a non-functioning monitor. It used to work with an external monitor, but I reinstalled the OS, which cleared the display preferences and now when I restart it won't detect the external monitor. This means I can't use the computer anymore. How do I fix? I tried using the Command+F2 keyboard shortcut, but it doesnt' work. It's possible that since I reinstalled the OS, it still needs to be set up, so there's only a welcome screen (but since I can't see it I'm not sure).

There is no limit to the number of times you can re-install Office on the same computer.

Report to Generate Materials Used for the Production of FG/SFG Materiak

Dear Experts,
I am working for a Cement Factory. CLINKER is a SFG used for the production of FG Cement.
RMOPCK1 and FINECOAL are another SFG used for the Production of CLINKER
RMOPCK1
+ = CLINKER + (Different Materials) = CEMENT
FINECOAL
For CLINKER we will create process order every month similarly for RMOPCK1 and FINECOAL.
RMOPCK1 is using 5 Raw materials and FINECOAL is using 1 raw material
Limestone + Silica 1 + Silica 2 + Bauxite 1+ Ironore 1 = RMOPCK1 and
Rawcoal = FINECOAL
All the raw materials, SFGs are used for creating different variety of cement.
I want to know for a certain period how much is the CLINKER produced and How much is the raw materials used for producing the CLINKER.
When i try through KOB1 with the process orders for CLINKER it is giving me total usage ofr RMOPCK1 and FINECOAL for producing the CLINKER.
I Want to know for ex:
the quantity of raw materials (Limestone + Silica 1 + Silica 2 + Bauxite 1+ Ironore 1 )used for producing ex: 1000 TON of CLINKER.
Please help. Thanks

Press any key on the wireless keyboard after you close the MBP and it goes to sleep. The computer will wake up with the external monitor as its display. This is called Clamshell mode.

Using ms project 2007 and vba macro to list all the custom fields used in the project?

Hi,Using ms project 2007 vba macro, I would like to be able to list all the custom fields used in the project and their corresponding field names. e.g. let us say I create a calculated duration field and name it "expected duration" and the name
of the field I select is Duration1.
I am trying to write a macro that will list all the used custom fields such as the result would look like:
Duration1 ---> "expected duration"
Text1 ---> "anything"
Flag1 ---> "....."
Number1 ---> "..............."
Can anyone provide me with the solution?
Regards,
Chuck

John,
I found this module, which provides the the list of custom fields used in the project but does not provide the name given to the field. Here below is the module and hope you could help me achieve this by modifying the macro to list the renamed field.
' MSP Checks all Custom Task Fields
Sub checkfields2()
'This macro will check and report out which custom task fields are used
'It requires Project 2002 and above as it relies on the GetField
'and FieldNameToFieldConstant methods which were not introduced until
'2002.
'It does not include resource fields, however it is a simple matter to
'do it by replacing the pjTask constant with pjResource.

How can i use the project code instead of project xml?

hello
i use the sessionbean+toplink structure,after i finish the o-r mapping by using the mapping work bench,i generate the project xml file,then in the "session.xml" file,i refer to the project xml,then i can use it from sessionbean.
i hear that if i use the project code instead of project xml file,it will be more performant,is that true?
otherwise,how can i use the project code instead of project xml file?i mean, in "session.xml", i can use the "<project-xml>" tag to refer to the project xml file,then in my session bean,i get the server session by read the "session.xml" file.but if i use the project code,how can i refer it from the "session.xml"?the examples that come with the toplink installation only tell me how can i use the project xml file within the session bean,it don't give me any clue about using the project code in the sesion bean,who can give me a step-by-step instruction and code snippet?
thank you very much?

There is a slight performance gain during session load at startup but there is no difference at runtime. The choice of which to use is dependent upon you build process. Whether it is easier to submit a new version of the class into the comile build process vs an XML file. In most cases it is just a preference of the development team.
When you use the project-class you'll need to generate the source code and compile it into your system. Typically it is packaged with the persistent classes. You may need to configure your environment so that the class-loaders have access to these classes (same for the XML case).
When using the project-class you simply replace the project-xml entry like this:
<project-class>oracle.toplink.demos.employee.relational.EmployeeProject</project-class>
The DTD for the session.xml file is found at <TOPLINK_HOME>\core\sessions_4_5.dtd. It is also in the documentation at:

Using Eclipse project definitions to build the Flex SDK

It would be great if someone from Adobe could post on the recommended usage of the Eclipse project definitions in the development/eclipse/ subdirectory of the 3.0.x trunk distribution. I would like to debug some compiler modifications that I am working on.
I saw Peter Farland demo this setup at 360Flex, but was unable to capture all the details of the Eclipse configuration that he discussed in his talk.
thanks!

If you go to the framework project’s properties, there is a section called Flex Library Compiler, you want to use a specific flex sdk (add a new sdk which points to the trunk, and use that) — you are probably building /against/ the wrong sdk, right code, wrong compiler.

Try changing the sdk for the framework lib project to trunk (you'll need to add a new flex sdk, name it whatever you want) -- it's in the project properties. It's using the wrong compiler.

I am running FB on top of Eclipse 3.3.2.
<http://3.3.2.> <

http://3.3.2.> I checked out the whole SDK trunk and can build the main ant task with no errors. I used the instructions mentioned above to create a Flex framework library project and thats where the error comes in. (I had tried to manually build a framework project a few times and it was a nightmare.) I would probably prefer to work on the 3.0.x branch/tag as I hope to submit a patch or two but saw Joe mention that the project defs only existed in the trunk.
Searching Google for the oem error turns up lots of links about projects that had assets deleted and the build got confused but following the instructions on how to fix proved unsuccessful.

I always forget what that error means when it comes up -- though it's been ages since I've seen it last, literally.
Joe: Since you mention Java 1.5, I'm guessing the errors are in the asdoc package? Those should be turned off (read: turned into a warning) -- Eclipse is a little too persnickety about that particular error. There's a preference for this in the Java section under warnings and errors. It's turned off in the trunk dev projects. Otherwise, you should be able to run the compiler directly with no problems (okay, one more caveat: there's a class loader issue with the OEM, fixed in trunk if you look for my Java 1.5 checkin).
Ben: What is your setup? What are you building (Ryan mentions trunk, Joe mentions 30x), which Eclipse, which dev projects, did you build the sdk from the commandline first, etc.?

When to use what project type?

Hi,
I am kind of baffled by the use of Flash Project in Flash Builder 4.
Flex Project is for build RIA\Flex applications with a design view available for creating the GUI.
ActionScript projects allow you to program\debug AS3 code and only when you run the application you get a visual feedback.
1) But when will I want to use Flash Projects?
The reason I am asking is that I have a project that currently works by running a main swf file that in turn loads additional swf files (Sorry I can't show you a demo), switching the loaded swf every 30 seconds.
I am leaning to use a Flash Project to manage my project. On the other hand, I could move the entire project to Flex and implement the different swfs as different states of the GUI.
2) What do you think?
Thanks for your help and feedbacks.

You can start reviewing this topic from here
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashbuilder/using/WS6f97d7caa66ef6eb1e63e3d11b6c4d0d21-7ffb.h tml#WSbde04e3d3e6474c4-63107a8b12642da83ed-8000
I would also want to add some details about my project that cause me to ponder on what project type to use.
1) My project involves multiple flash\swf files that are loaded during work. I need to manage their creation.
2) All my swfs are loaded as part of a single application that runs in the backgrounds and loads each swf to display different information.
3)I have many as3 files that I use and would also like to manage them properly.
4) I would have liked to manage the project under a cvs project, like you can do with Java, so I don't have to do manual backups.
Any ideas?
